Firefox Tips: How To Install A Theme

Want a new theme for your Firefox browser but don't know how to get one? I'm here to help! It's a quick process and I'll show you how to do it in five easy steps. Ready? Here we go!


1. First things first, we'll need to visit the Firefox website at mozilla.com. Now that we're on the site, we can begin our steps. Direct your mouse up to Add-ons (click on image above to maximize it) and click on Themes.


2. See the sidebar on your left? Those are all the choices that you have in picking a theme. We'll choose Miscellaneous.

3. We are now on Miscellaneous and there are 184 themes to choose from! Go ahead and click on A Blue Fox Theme.


4. See the text that's highlighted in blue? You want to make sure that you have the right Firefox version. I have version 3.6, so it will work. I won't have you click on the Add to Firefox button because it will download. I will click on the button to show you what it does, unless of course, you want this theme.

5. In the image above, we can see that it's downloading. It's not a big file so it will download rather quickly. After it's done, it will ask if you want to restart Firefox. You'll want to restart it, because it will show the new theme that you just downloaded. That's it! You're done.


Next week, I'll have a tip on downloading a Persona skin to Firefox. Be sure to check back then! Have any questions or comments about this tip? Leave a comment or send an e-mail to gracethorson@gmail.com.

God bless!
